Cotton fabric

[Engel]

So for Christmas I got a sewing machine which means I'll be able to make my own liners and hides. However, I have a lot of cotton fabric left which I use to make rat hammocks out of (summer ones). Unfortunately my rats are getting on now and I will not be getting any more for the foreseeable future. Is there anything I can make for the piggies that is cotton? So far, all I can think of is hay bags.

I used cotton fabrics for the outside of cuddle cups and tunnels and do fleece middles which always work out nicely!

This is a cotton one!

I love that tunnel @rp1993

My cuddle sacks are cotton on the outside and fleece on the inside and I turn them inside out for the summer. Here is RB piggy Silver Fox Christian fast asleep in one.

Christian was a lovely cheeky boy who passed over the Rainbow Bridge a year ago aged nearly 5. He was called Christian as he was several shades of grey!
